Almost furnace weather
Chilly this morning, but we resist cranking up old Nick down in the basement. Time to develop some thick skin!
There was much football watched in this house today. Had to drag my mother away for her perambulations. Quite the role reversal from when she used to turn off our old black and white TV set after Saturday morning cartoons and whisk us outside to play. She does love sitting with my beloved spouse and watching whatever games he's enjoying.
We ran into an elderly neighbor on our afternoon walk who is obese, and after asking how many walks Mother did each day, informed us that she couldn't walk any more, and that she was falling down in her house and having a hard time getting back up. But she hadn't yet hurt herself,"Knock on wood."
Nice dinner, then around 10:00 we went over to the Seamonster Lounge to hear a friend of our son's play guitar in a quartet. Beloved son hadn't made it back from Leavenworth, but we represented for the family, I guess. Thougth we'd only stay for one set, but they were really good, so we didn't leave until almost 1:00. Leader of the group was playing a Hammond B3; we've seen him perform before, he's fabulous. He's a seasoned fellow, and is like the catcher in "Bull Durham" for the youngsters playing with him. They're in capable hands.
Interesting social sidenote: Two women beloved son has gone out with were there, a former and a present. Both very cool people, IMO. Not so sure how it would have been for him had he arrived.
